CherryLimeadeIcePops

One of my favorite things to make throughout the warm summer months are ice pops! Not only do my grandkids love ice pops but adults alike do too. Cherry Limeade Ice Pops are made with whole dried cherries from Paradise Fruit. Ice pops are also made with frozen limeade. Minute Maid is a popular brand of limeade, for instance. Cool off this summer with these refreshing cherry limeade ice pops!

Cherry Lime Bread with Lime Glaze is a terrific tasting bread with a unique and refreshing taste.
